Race Tracking Your Supra - Information exchange

[MacAllan30]

So, I added an Adro wing to my A90 and got it colour matched except the winglets.

Next step, take it to a cars and coffee, as I leave turn off traction control and make sure tires are nice and cold and floor it on a curved entrance to a freeway and see if this baby can fly!!!!

Seriously, I pray that I do not become "that guy" on TikTok...

Heading to NJMP next weekend (5-7th) with PCA. Anyone else planning to be there? It will be my first time taking this to the track.

Also, for those of you with 90's Initial D nostalgia - I know this is not an FD - but still trying to relive the good days of Keisuke Takahashi!

Where did you order the adro wing from?

Does anyone know how much neg camber you can realistically get on Verus camber plates?
If their claim of -3 is accurate, should I just settle for that and not bother with Verkline LCAs?

i got -2.8 and -2.7 with my HKS springs. I could probably squeeze out another 0.1 or so, but i prefer to have the extra clearance to the strut tower just in case.

I’m at 3.5 right now and have a lot more room to go. Had to switch over to the next bolt holes though. Pretty sure 4 would be no problem.

tire temps will tell you if you need more camber.

Start with camber plates and see if you need the adjustable LCAs. For me, the more negative camber I can get, the better. I’m glad I‘m on a square setup. My outer tire wear up front always goes 1st.

Going back to spec for off season. Less hydroplaning during our rainy season.

Looking into doing a lug stud conversion. Is this a good option:

Yes same one I have. I swap wheels 2-3 times a month. I did buy aftermarket titanium nuts since my old MSH ones were prone to rusting.

I got some Turner MS ones that I can exchange every couple of years. But yeah, you’ve got a point.

I originally had a different set of MSH studs for about 2 years but I needed longer ones and wanted to change lug size so I've had that exact set you linked for about half a year now, still look to be in good shape and I've tracked it in the rain. I bought these nuts: https://ti-alloys.com/product/titanium-conical-seat-lug-nut-open-ended/

Mine came in perfect condition but I recently recommended my buddy @Vertex to get them and the faces of his were pretty scratched up (we both got black) so their QA might be a bit lax. They did offer him $50 refund.

As previously mentioned, mine were scratched on 1 face on 1-2 of the lug nuts, and 3+ faces on every other lug nut. If you are just looking from afar you can't see it but I noticed IMMEDIATELY upon inspection of them. The guy I was in contact with claimed they would get ahold of the packing/shipping people that box up the nuts to "make sure" that it does not happen with future customer orders.

I actually still have yet to see my refund and will be sending another email today if I don't see something today on my card as it will be 10 days as of today which was what they promised (2-10 days) when I would see the refund. Was pretty disappointed especially with the cost that they were all like that. If they were any other color it would have been way more noticeable (brighter color) as I went with black.

No worries. Thanks for the response. Did you have someone install it or did you do it yourself? Wondering what the cost would be on this… thanks

It comes with stencils and pretty good instructions. Not the most difficult install and there are some youtube videos. I had it painted to match the car colour, which cost about $800.
